Abstract

Method and sorting machine for granular products with a slanting distributing surface (3), a detection device (12) and a removal device (7), whereby the products to be sorted (2,10,11) are supplied onto the distributing surface (3) and move over this surface (3) in a wide product flow, and whereby this product flow is guided through a detection zone (4). Said detection device (12) makes it possible to scan the products (2,10,11) according to a scan line (15) in said detection zone (4) following a direction crosswise to the direction of movement of the product flow in order to characterise these products as suitable product (10) or as undesired product (11). Said removal device (7) hereby comprises a row of compressed air valves (8) extending almost crosswise to the direction of movement of the product flow and almost parallel to the latter on the same side of the product flow as said distributing surface (3), whereby each of the compressed air valves (8) contains a blow nozzle which is directed to said product flow. The distance (Y) between said scan line (15) and the centre of the blow nozzle of each of said compressed air valves (8) is smaller than the double of the largest diameter (Dmax) of the products to be sorted, increased with 100 mm.
